Refrain (NAKATA Akira)
That adorably cheerful younger brother is enough to wipe away any competition! A very cute story with beautiful art, totally one to re read.
Warui Otona Mihon
A good story, I enjoyed it but felt it was disjointed at times and didn’t flow as well as it could. For example,it started with them already knowing each other, then had some flashback and randomly flipped back to the present with some more flashback to their first meeting as adults. I liked how the seme did not allow himself to be controlling or invade Rui’s privacy, even when he felt insecure. Overall, worth a read, just not really memorable.
Nichiyoubi ni Pound Cake
I love a younger seme story, especially when they have the sweet yet dominant characteristics of Takeyoshi in his pursuit of Nishida. He was so positive and adorable, and I loved how he was able to tease his fiesty uke, Nishida.
Namaiki Kareshi
Such a lovely story. There was caring and respect between these two. I loved how after breaking up with the tramp of a girlfriend time was taken to resolve the hurt left behind and the MCs spent time getting closer emotionally. I love an age gap story with a younger seme, and Izumi was protective, patient and beautiful. A story to reread many times.
Toshishita Kareshi ni Hirowaremashita
So freakin’ adorable!
Fingertip's Love
Awesome story and fantastic characters. Another great Naono Bohra manga ️
Ikujinashi no Shiawase
Loved most of these, especially the shop owner/landlord and the vampire stories. Even the perverted cousin messing with his drunk, sleeping cousin was surprisingly enjoyable despite the dubious consent. But the violent rapist host club owner was abusive and obsessed, and not even a good kind of obsessed, but a horrible, controlling and thoroughly selfish kind. Zero tenderness = bleh
Lucky Item
Great to see the guys from Fingertips again here. The MCs in this story were interesting but I found their relationship mostly unsatisfying as throughout most of this they had more of a cold, physical sexual transaction than a caring one.
Kininaru Ano Ko
Loved the first story, it was so sweet and it was great to see a sensei who put the future of his student as a priority. The second story, not as good for me. It wasn’t just the non consensual sex, or maybe it was, but I couldn’t feel a genuine connection.
